March Pose
Half Lord of the Fishes is good for stretching your outer hips and thighs, opening your shoulders and chest, building strength in your upper back, lengthening your spine, and stretching the front of your thighs. It can also help stimulate digestion.
1. Begin seated in Sukhasana. Cross your right knee on top or your left, bringing your feet alongside your hips.
2. Lift your right knee up to place the soul of your right foot on the mat outside of your left knee.
3. Place your right hand to the floor outside of your right hip for support. Make sure you are sitting evening on both sitting bones.
4. Inhale and raise your left hand to the ceiling. Exhale and bring your left elbow down to the outside of your right knee. Press your knee and elbow together to create some resistance.
5. Turn your head to the right, looking past your right shoulder. Make sure you don’t strain your neck.
6. Breath as you hold the pose, lengthening on each inhale and gently twisting a bit more with each exhale.
7. To exit the pose, inhale to reach the right arm up and unwind the body. Exhale to release back to center. Repeat on the other side.
March Theme - JOY!
MUDITA- Sympathetic JOY
“Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are.” - Marianne Williamson
When we take delight in the happiness of another and genuinely rejoice in their success or good fortune, rather than in a begrudging way, we are abiding in Mudita -sympathetic joy.
Mudita has been called the mind-deliverance of gladness because this force of happiness actually liberates us. Unlike a state of mere excitement or giddiness, the quality of sympathetic joy can sometimes challenge our deep assumptions about loneliness, loss, and happiness. It has the ability to show us another possibility.
Can we allow the lives of others to be different from ours and still feel happy for them? Can we rejoice for them as their happiness grows in whatever way that is happening?
